Awesome to see a quote from that. I also love the ones from Little Women and HP. My favorite quote on this list has to be the first one, though -- I don't know it, but descriptions of libraries and bookstores are even better than delicious food descriptions at turning me into Drooling Homer Simpson.RShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15389851788572591784noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32315311.post-59510824249884836172021-06-02T07:34:19.893-07:002021-06-02T07:34:19.893-07:00Someone suggested taking a picture of quotes you l...Someone suggested taking a picture of quotes you like with your phone, then transferring them to your quote journal later, when you're feeling less lazy.

You have some great quotes here (I especially love the ones from To Kill a Mockingbird and Coraline). And don’t worry, I’m exactly the same - I never seem to make note of quotes I love as I’m actually reading which makes posts like this super hard to do when they come around!Ashleyhttps://ashsinfinitelibrary.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32315311.post-8852661417786713482021-05-27T10:01:10.686-07:002021-05-27T10:01:10.686-07:00Agreed.
